That woman is like having an icepick stuck in both ears at once. Sadly, BSPN has so many verkakte announcers and "ANALysts, that it's hard to say really who is the absolute worst.

The SEC made a very clear statement several years ago that we would NOT schedule Friday night games specifically to respect the huge HS football culture in the SE. I don’t care that it’s an out of conference game, I’m surprised bspn would entertain this as a good idea with 2 FL schools. I’m surprised Strickland hasn’t called the SEC for support.
Sorry, I forgot… bspn is run by idiots and we have spineless leadership. And acc is the acc.

The HS regular season normally is complete by mid-November. In most SE States the playoffs begin the weekend after the Thanksgiving break and are normally played on Saturdays, not the traditional Friday night.
I'm glad we have been invited to be the prime time opening game for rivalry weekend. I'm also glad it is in Tallahassee to fxxk with their recruiting plans. This is good for Napier's program as it shows the program Exec's at ESPN believe the game will be relevant before the first snap. Think they would have made this decision if Mullen was still at the helm? I don't!

So...if HS regular season football is over by November, how does this game fck with Nole recruiting?

Many of the top recruits are in the playoffs so they would have to leave their team to go to the recruiting weekend. It probably won't be that big of an impact but will be more than UF as the visitor. Last year UF had a ton of recruits at that game in G-ville and we didn't even have a HC. I'm sure they had a great party, the student body was in full force that day.

It’s a big Friday Night Rivals. This showdown will be followed by UNR v. UNLV for the nightcap at 10:30 EST.

There's a whole lot of spin in this post joe. Almost all playoff games in Florida are played on Friday night.
The schools shoulder the blame here, but the game has been downgraded to egg bowl status period.
I would have never thought this was possible from 1990 - 2010 when this game was many times the biggest game on rivalry weekend.

CBN may or may not be the answer for us, but I remain convinced NorveLLLLLLL is not the answer for the clowns, so either way, this will remain an unimportant game nationally for at least a little while longer.

Saw a tweet on tos explaining that the SEC has already confirmed the 2023 matchup in Gainesville will be on a Saturday. I guess the home team's conference dictates the parameters for the game, so 2022 is just a typical acc plea for attention.
